3B Brae's Brown Bags is a small nonprofit based in Bear, Delaware, founded in 2013 by Braeden Mannering when he was nine years old, with a mission to improve access to healthy foods for low-income and homeless populations. The organization distributes brown bags that include healthy snacks, water, and information about additional services to help recipients connect with support resources and meet immediate needs. The organization also aims to raise awareness of food insecurity and poverty and to empower youth to participate in solutions on a national scale. In 2015 it launched 3B Ripples to help schools and youth organizations establish their own local 3B chapters. A recent development noted in coverage is a partnership with Tesco to support community efforts.
